[ravi348]

Hi,

I am trying to run synthesis for my design in tcl mode in linux terminal without using GUI in remote desktop provided by my friend.
when I run any command just as an example:
launch_runs synth_1
it shows command not found.

please help me to setup vivado environment

1. refer to the command reference of the vivado version that you are using, for example, https://www.xilinx.com/support/documentation/sw_manuals/xilinx2017_4/ug835-vivado-tcl-commands.pdf (this is for 2017.4, very similar to 2017.1); 2) seems launch_runs is only used in project mode, check this: https://www.xilinx.com/support/documentation/sw_manuals/xilinx2016_3/ug975-vivado-quick-reference.pdf
